But the surprise discovery of an additional marriage to his client’s father leads Morton on an enquiry, revolving around a mysterious death in the county asylum.

I had heard of this genre and even as a genealogist myself I wasn't convinced a fiction story of someone doing genealogy research would be, at all interesting. However I am convinced, this was fantastic and I now have some catching up to do. Very well done and naming the sources used, helps future genealogist... Thank you!
